Summary
In this class, students will learn about the possibilities of performing chemical transformations without the presence of an organic solvent. Students will explore alternative methodologies ranging from supercritical fluids to solventless conditions. The goal of this lecture is not only to inform students of alternative methodologies but also to provide real examples of how these approaches are used today.
